April was a fairly quiet month for us! Yay!
We did, however, introduce Maverick to bubbles. He LOVES them. These are some of my favorite pictures of him of all time.
Pure delight. I am going to have this hanging on the wall soon. |
One fun thing we did was the 5th Hong Kong International Pillow Fight Day!!!! Scott's friend, the author of the Hong Kong based news website HongWrong, organizes the event. This year was the largest yet, with about 2,000 people meeting in a garden in the middle of the city. People were encouraged to wear their pajamas, or dress up. There were groups of people dressed up as minions, or Pokemon characters, or Hello Kitty, ect. Everyone brought their own pillow, and then a fight ensued! It felt weirdly liberating to run around and whack people you don't know in the face. I expected the fight to last 2 minutes, but it ended up being about 30 minutes. My sister Sunnee, and her family came with us. Lola rode around on her dad's, David, shoulders. And Maverick rode on Scott's shoulders. Maverick was so excited that if you put him down he would run to the edge of the crowd, lean forward and "ROAR!" trying to lure someone into hitting him with a pillow. My little adventurer.
Me and about ten other people with cameras caught this moment. Very typical, on both sides. :) |
Lola was ready to hit some people! |
Kale and Hazel- Ready to Rumble! |
The crowd is listening to Tom, Scott's friend that organized the event. |
Here you can see both Lola and Mav helping their daddies fight. |
